### 1/5 — Totally dumb app

*2026-06-27, version 4.78*

I really hate this app because it’s not free and you can find how to make the origami on YouTube and it’s way too simple really not worth it

### 3/5 — Instructions…

*2026-05-30, version 4.76*

It’s just hard to follow the instructions

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-05-05, version 4.74*

***** star’s because I love to do origami

### 1/5 — Great, other than the money grab subscription.

*2026-05-01, version 4.74*

Great app, but I am not paying a monthly fee. Let me buy the content like a book, and if you release more patterns sell them as a DLC. Subscription for paper folding is outrageous.

### 1/5 — Perché abbonamento ?

*2026-04-23, version 4.73*

La app si presenta esteticamente bella, ma non è intuitiva. Dopo averti chiesto di compilare le tue preferenze sembra lasciarti cominciare a scegliere l’origami ma in realtà ci sono ulteriori presentazioni. Se vuoi sbloccare le funzioni devi pagare. Forse l’avrei acquistata se fosse stato un acquisto singolo ma perché dovrei fare un abbonamento annuale o mensile? Mi dispiace è un modo di fare spendere obbligatoriamente. Invece Origami Teaching è molto più semplice ed intuitiva, ti lascia immediatamente scegliere l’origami che vuoi e la puoi acquistare per sempre a soli 0,99 centesimi. Mi sembra più onesto.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-04-21, version 4.73*

So I can do a lot of origami stuff and then I was thinking about some more stuff
Swear I looked at the app and I really love it

### 5/5 — Divonico

*2026-04-20, version 4.73*

Ele funciona muito bem

### 5/5 — Could be better

*2026-04-18, version 4.73*

Want more options

### 4/5 — Mid good

*2026-04-13, version 4.73*

This app is good for beginer, but i hope it update more animal model. And it can better if it premium. And overall it great

### 5/5 — Very fun but…

*2026-04-09, version 4.72*

You have to pay for premium subscription for some of the crafts but there is a free trial which I will use but anyways there is a good selection of free crafts .I highly recommend this app for origami !!!
